However one interprets Trump's comments in Warsaw--which were no different than what would have been offered by Hillary Clinton--in the context of the Trump-Putin meeting and Syria negotiations, it might also be helpful to offer a historical corrective on Polish nationalism, which Daniel Lazare does in this Jacobin article from 2015; you don't have to bother with the execrable poetry to get the historical critique. And it's fascinating, as always, to note the selective response to anti-Semitism that characterizes Zionist propaganda, by commission and omission. In any event, it would seem that the conventional wisdom that the Soviets abandoned the Poles in Warsaw in 1944 is a myth, or at least Lazare convinces me of that.
